Advanced Group Therapy Promoting a Mutual Aid

Environment

April 27, 2018

8:30 am-4:00 pm

332 North Hall Iowa City, Iowa

http://www.signmeup.com/123375

This workshop is designed for

clinicians seeking to enhance their

group facilitation skills and

conceptualization from a Mutual-Aid

framework. We will learn about

different group types and the

challenges and opportunities in each

to promote Mutual Aid with clients in a

group psychotherapy setting.

Participants will review different

stages of the group including pre-

group planning, monitoring discord

between participants, and ways to

effectively evaluate progress of the

group and individual members. The

presentation will be largely

experiential with ample opportunity to

practice and review skills in role-plays

and observation.
